LESSONWISE GUIDELINES FOR MATHEMATICS (GRADE X)

I. GST
i) GST is calculated on sale price obtained after deducting discount, if any, from the list price.

ii) In case of intra – state transaction (within the state) rate of GST is equally divided into
SGST rate and CGST rate.
iii) Answer should be expressed up to 2 decimal place along with unit.

II. BANKING
i. Always convert years to months during calculations.
AS per the requirement of the question, convert the months into years, in the final answer.
ii) Answer should be expressed up to 2 decimal place along with unit.

III. LINEAR INEQUATIONS


1. Solution set for natural/ whole/ integers should always be in List form, i.e. {−2, −1,0,1}
Number line will only have DARK DOTS on each number.
ii. Solution set for real numbers should be in set builder form, i.e. {−2 ≤ 𝑥 < 2 ∶ 𝑥 ∈ 𝑅}.
Dots should be on the extreme values and the region between the extreme values should be
shaded.
iii. In case if a fraction is to be marked then you are expected to mark it approximately on
the number line such that your mark is justified by its value.
iv. At least two extra value should be given on either side of number line .
IV. QUADRATIC EQUATIONS & SOLVING PROBLEMS.
i. Every rational or irrational number is a real number but a complex number is not a
real number.
ii. Always show the substitution in the formula and then proceed further.
Do not leave your answer in fractions.
iii. If the number is a perfect square, there will always be a " ± " sign.
In word problems you are expected to write the final answer in words.

iv. Round – off to significant places or decimal places as given in the


question. For example; Round off 0.3892 to 2 significant figures →
0.39
v. Round off 0.3892 to 2 decimal places → 0.39
vi. All non-zero digits are significant. 198745 contains six significant digits.
vii. All zeros that occur between any two non zero digits are significant. For example,
108.0097 contains seven significant digits.
viii. All zeros that are on the right of a decimal point and also to the left of a non-zero digit
is never significant. For example, 0.00798 contained three significant digits.
ix. All zeros that are on the right of a decimal point are significant, only if, a non-zero
digit does not follow them. For example, 20.00 contains four significant digits.
x. All the zeros that are on the right of the last non-zero digit, after the decimal point, are
significant. For example, 0.0079800 contains five significant digits.
xi. All the zeros that are on the right of the last non-zero digit are significant if they come
from a measurement. For example, 1090 m contains four significant digits.
xii. You are expected to make a rough diagram wherever necessary.
xiii. You are expected to write your final answer and BOX it.
xiv. If b2- 4ac = 0 then the roots are real & equal.
xv. If If b2- 4ac > 0 then the rots are real & unequal.

xvi. If b2- 4ac < 0 then the roots are imaginary (not real ) .

V. RATIO AND PROPORTION


i. If proportion must be proven ,then always use LHS – RHS method .
ii) Always support your calculations by writing properties of proportion as reasons.
VI. REMAINDER AND FACTOR THEOREMS
i. You may use any division method, either long form or Synthetic division.
ii. If you are trying to find the factors then always start with 1,-1, 2, -2,… and so on.
iii. If the question asks you to factorize the equation then write your answer as the product of
its factors. For example; f(x) = (x – 1)(x – 2)(x – 3)
VII. MATRICES
i. Order of a matrix = ROWS × COLUMNS
ii. Two matrices can only be added if they have the same order.
iii. Two matrices can only be multiplied if and only if number of columns in the first matrix is
equal to number of rows in the second.

𝐴(𝑚×𝑛) × 𝐵(𝑛×𝑝) = 𝐶(𝑚×𝑝)

VIII. ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION


i. Identify the first term, the common difference, and the number of terms correctly.
ii. Write the correct formula, then substitute and solve.
IX. REFLECTION
i. Follow the scale if given.
ii. Always plot the points on the graph and circle the points.
iii. Learn to identify the invariant points by looking at the graph.
iv. If asked to identify the figure then name the figure correctly ( Geometrical name).

X. SECTION AND MID – POINT FORMULA & EQUATION OF A LINE


i. Remember, any point that satisfies the equation of the line, lies on that line. If
any point is lying on the given line, then it satisfies the given equation.
ii. Inclination of X – axis and every line parallel to X – axis is 00.
iii. Inclination of Y – axis and every line parallel to Y – axis is 900.
iv. Co – ordinates to be written in round brackets. Answers to be left in improper fraction
form.
v. If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.
vi. If two lines are mutually perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.
vii. Equation of x-axis is y=0.
viii. Equation of y-axis is x=0.
ix. Equation of a line parallel to the x-axis & at a distance a from it, is y=a.

iii. Put a kink mark if the Ogive does not start from 0.
iv. Label the X – axis and the Y – axis and write the correct scale.
v. You are expected to mark the point and encircle it before writing the co – ordinates.
vi. Write the answers related to the graph questions on the answer sheet.( Not to write this
behind the graph paper, as it will not be checked by examiner).
vii. Mode, median & the quartiles to be shown on the graph paper as well.
XVIII. PROBABILITY
i. Mention the formula of probability.
ii. You are expected to write the sample space only once in a sum.
iii. After finding the probability write down your answer in statement.

GENERAL POINTS :
i) There is no need to show the working for the MCQ type questions. You are supposed
to write subquestion number- correct option- correct answer.
e.g. Q.1 ( ii) – C – Rs. 500
ii. Rupees should always be written upto 2 decimal places.
iii. In your answer if the denominator is irrational then rationalize it.
iv. You are expected to box all your answers.
v. Not writing the final answer in words will lead to deduction of 1 mark.
vi. Solve each question on a new page.
vii. Keep your paper neat and your handwriting readable.
viii. Show rough work by making a rough column on right hand side of each page of your
Answer paper or last five lines of each page of your Answer paper.
ix. Elimination of necessary rough work or calculations will lead to deduction of marks.
